<p>1. Guardian—Order of removal not invalid because of defective petition—The county court may, of its own motion, for cause, make an order removing the guardian of a minor; and where such an order is made by the court on the petition of some person interested in the minor, it is not invalid because of the petition’s being defective.</p> <p>2. Same—Article 2615, Revised Statutes, construed—Sub-division 3 of article 2615, Revised Statutes, applies as well to guardians of the person as to guardians of the estates of minors; and a judgment removing a guardian of the person, which assigns as the ground therefor, that such guardian had misapplied property of the ward, committed to his charge, states a good cause for removal.</p>
